What does MAGMA mean in Scrabble?
noun
Hot, molten or semi-molten rock found beneath the surface of the earth.
Magma forms deep underground where heat and pressure melt solid rock, and it can contain dissolved gases along with crystals that have not yet melted completely. When magma reaches the surface through a volcanic eruption, it loses gas and is then called lava rather than magma. Geologists study how magma moves and cools because its composition strongly influences the shape and violence of a volcanic eruption.
How MAGMA is used
Technical geology term; distinguished from lava, which refers to the same material once it reaches the surface.
- Deep beneath the volcano, magma slowly rose toward the surface.
- The chamber of magma had been building pressure for decades.
- Scientists tracked the movement of magma using seismic sensors.
- As magma cools underground, it forms igneous rock.
